Issue with Android Market after flashing/unrooting back to Stock - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I currently went back to stock image, after root. I used the esprimg.zip to flash back to stock. The android market opens but I go to Apps->All applications and on the categories on the top where it tells you Top Paid, Top Free, and Just in tabs. I don't see the top paid anymore. Also when I go to downloads section it doesn't tell me what apps need update. Like for example Google Maps in the stock is at version 4.1.0 but it has to be updated to 4.3.0 but it doesn't tell theres an update available next to the app. So is there like something wrong with the market or is it just my phone?

I am also experiencing this problem after wiping (no root though).

Theres a thread about this in the general section as well, its wide spread. There is also an issue when installing apps where the install bar doesn't go away unless you force close the market

[Q] Android Market issues?

Is anyone (besides myself) having issues downloading or installing apps from the Market?
I'm using Fresh 3.2 w/ the stock kernel
I have major problems with the market. One work around that I figured out and hopefully it will work for you too is to start your market downloads (they get hung up, right?) and then go into fresh updater and download something. I usually just download the Fresh Updater Fix over and over. The download from fresh updater triggers the market download to start. It works for me EVERY time.
what if your not on a fresh rom?
Start your market downloads then go and download something else from the internet. It should work just the same but I haven't tried it. Can't hurt to give it a shot.
Yeah I have problems hanging. I just cancel one and go back to the canceled one and redownload and starts up

[Q] Update pre-installed G2 apps?

Super-noob question here--
Executive summary:
I (may) want to update pre-installed G2 apps from the market. Can I?
Longer version:
Here's what I think I know. The G2 comes with some apps hard-coded into the system. (In the NAND?) I've seen the helpful information about removing them and I've used that to kill off a couple that I'll never use.
But what about the ones I've kept that I now see are updated in the Market? (YouTube, for example, or maybe Google Goggles.) As far as the Market is concerned, those apps aren't even "installed" on my system.
I've seen some posts stating you have to delete Google Goggles before you can install a newer version. On the other hand, I've just now installed the new version of YouTube and there didn't seem to be a problem.
So I'm just confused by it all. If someone could brain me up I'd appreciate it.
they update through the market just fine, it installs them to /data and runs them from there
Oh, I see now. After you install the new version, Manage Applications gives you a different option than "Uninstall." It says "Uninstall Updates" instead. And if you do, then it removes the Market version and the original app automagically reappears.
The only difference is that after you delete the update, Market is now aware that you have the app installed.
It all makes sense now. Thanks.

Android Market Unsuccessful, indefinite download bar help

Hello Everyone,
I'm Perm rooted using Flippy125's Kernal update and CyanogenMOD 6.1.1 ROM with google apps. Despite this, my Android Market has an infinite download bar when I try to download an app for like 10 seconds, then download icon automatically disappears, while the app itself remains on the market without a status (instead of saying INSTALLED or DOWNLOADED, it shows "Free") like it's never been bothered with...could anyone know what the cause of this is?
Have you tried clearing Market's cache? I've had this experience before on my G1, running CM6 before. It seemed to have solved the problem for me. You might want to do that as well.

[Q] CM7 & Incompatible Market

Okay, so I've been updating each nightly ROM and have a small issue. I've gone back to RC1v2 and the issue seems to be there too, although I am now back on the latest nightly (from 11th August).
a lot of apps I have installed - lets take Facebook as a pretty bog standard example - don't show up in the "My Apps" part of the Market app. If I search for it, it says it is installed. If there was an update then it allows me to update it, but still refuses to show it in "My Apps".
Now, if I go to the web version of the Market, it tells me that Facebook is "incompatible with my T-Mobile MB525". Clearly it's lying.
I've tried clearing cache and data from the Market app - still no joy.
I've tried taking the ro.build.fingerprint line of a Defy running stock 2.2 - no luck.
Has anyone else had this problem?
How can I fix it?
Yes I always have this no matter which rom I have.
You can get it to show all apps after you update or download a new app on the market.

Edit just tried it again amd it didn't work this time!
Edit 2 after clearing the cache (after downloading a new app from the market) it now shows all my apps.

No - that's not helping. For example, I've just searched for "chess" on my phone's market app, found one and installed it. the app does not show in "My Apps", and nor do any other supposedly incompatible ones. Market on web shows installed, and yet incompatible, screen attached.
Right that's a different issue to what I was thinking.
I used to have something similar to this when I was originally on eclair & tried to download apps from the market on my laptop - said they were incompatible as they were for a more recent Android version.
Sorry can't help any further as I've not had the issue on CM7.
hmm - bizarrely I just installed the latest nightly (1116), and now all my market works again. I'm confused, but somewhat happier.
now, if I can just work out why my patcher isn't working to get transparency theming I'll be sorted...

and now it doesn't. Clearly I'm doing something to cause this. Time for an investigation.
okay - the incompatibility comes when I try to rename the camera shutter sound. command I'm using is: mv camera_click.ogg camera_click.bak
Why would that cause this issue?
or apparently any command after mounting /system - at random. I give up.
In case anyone else IS following my ramblings here, I've changed ROM to WajkIUI, done nothing in the system folder, and still have incompatibility in the market.
Reloading a ROM was getting the market working - now not. The whole thing beats me.
gapps
Try flashing the latest gapps from here.
Another idea, try flashing a full nordic stock 2.2 sbf from scratch and applying CM7 again.
thanks - I'm already on the latest gapps.
I don't think flashing the sbf etc again would help, as like I've said - flashing a ROM usually fixes the problem, then I go and change stuff in /system (renaming the camera sound files, and uninstalling OI File Manager so I can get the later version in the market).
Custom dpi (lcd density) seems to cause the "incompatible" problem with the new market.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196417
Going back to 240 dpi and clearing market data makes everything work as it should.
You can then go back to your custom dpi, but most users are reporting the problem comes back after a while.

You're a star. That solved it. Thanks!
I had this issue also. The LCD density fix did nothing for me
i had to make changes to the build.prop file
below are the changes i made
original:
ro.build.description=umts_jordan-user 2.2.1 3.4.2-107_JDN-9 34.4.9 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=MOTO/jordan_tmo_us/umts_jordan/jordan:2.2.1/3.4.2-107_JDN-9/34.4.9:user/release-keys
replaced the above lines with:
ro.build.description=umts_jordan-user 2.2.1 3.4.2-107_JDN-9 34.4.9 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=MOTO/jordan_tmo_us/umts_jordan/jordan:2.2.1/3.4.2-107_JDN-9/34.4.9:user/release-key
these came from my stock froyo TMO ROM
am I blind, or did you really replace two lines with two identical lines?
I had a similar issue, but for some reason I have multiple accounts on for my market and the apps seem to get randomly assigned to another gmail account and will only show up when I go to that account.
I have not had any issues with the compatibility however, and I haven't flashed a new nightly since the end of Sept. but I am about to go with the first Defy stable build from CM so I guess we will see. I will make sure to back-up everything.

Yes, there's been quite a bit of discussion about this in the main thread. I haven't tried it myself, but the new G+ app is causing FC for a lot of (all?) users. It may well be a problem with the underlying HTC base software. Only "solution" I've seen is to uninstall it, sorry.
I'd suggest we all wait for Google to release v2.0 officially, that way we would avoid a lot of issues
I get Force Close on superuser, anywhere from 2-10 times a day...whether the phone is judt on main screen with no apps open, but use any rooted apps like system app remover, rom manager etc etc....force close all the time.
pull out battery, go into recovery, fix permissions...sorts it for an hour or so, then starts all over again....aRGHHH!!!

Do you have the Market version of Superuser installed? If you do, check to see if it has updated to 3.0.5, and if so uninstall the upgrade. There's more about this in the main ARHD thread.
